Hey all,

So tonight I went forward with only my second SR shave and I must say it was quite an improvement over the first! Far from perfect (or even good I'd say), but still, a whole lot better than the my first attempt on Sunday...

This time I definitely did a lot better sideburn down to the bottom of my neck, and I was even able to get my top lip pretty good. I did get a tiny knick just under my nose but I didn't even feel it even though I knew it the second I made my stroke. Weird how that works hey? lol!

I still had to give up on my chin but I did get a couple small areas there sorted. Overall it wasn't as clean a shave as I will expect later, but for my second attempt I am very pleased!

A couple things I remarked on... I think I will only lather where I am shaving first as I was going slow and found that the soap was totally dried out on the right side before I was done the left side. I was also still having a bit of grief with a comfortable position while being able to see in the mirror because of my blind eye and line of sight, and I thought of something a fellow said in my first shave thread where in the old days, some parents would teach their kids to shave blind without a mirror, so I gave it a bit of a go in that I just used the mirror to mark a spot, and then I just stopped trying to force a look and simply shaved by feel. Surprisingly it actually worked okay! Not sure if that is proper, but it may be how I have to proceed with a few areas...

Anyways, overall impression is one of improvement which is awesome! I can't wait for shave number 3 now!
